| Toxicity | A naturally occurring methylenedioxyphenyl compound found in nutmeg. It has been suggested that myristicin may be responsible, in whole or in part, for the toxicity of nutmeg. The spice (5-15 g) causes symptoms similar to atropine poisoning: flushing of the skin, tachycardia, absence of salivation, and excitation of the CNS. Euphoria and hallucinations have given rise to abuse of this material. As a methylenedioxyphenyl compound, myristicin gives rise to a type III spectrum with reduced cytochrome P450 and can inhibit monooxygenations catalyzed by this cytochrome. |

Myristicin Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Description
Myristicin is an alkenylbenzene present in small amounts in the essential oil of nutmeg that is reported to act as a serotonin receptor antagonist, a weak monamine oxidase inhibitor, and to produce hallucinogenic effects. Abuse of myristicin has led to fatal poisoning, which has prompted improved methods for HPLC determination of myristicin in human plasma. This product is intended for forensic and research purposes.
Chemical Properties
Crystalline phenolic ether with a strongodor.
Uses
A naturally occurring insecticide and acaricide with possible neurotoxic effects on neuroblastoma cells
Definition
The chief substance inthe ripe seeds of nutmeg (Myristica fragrans).It reduces the levels of cytochrome p-450 andinhibits monooxygenations catalyzed by thisenzyme.
Hazard
Poison; moderately toxic; mutagen.
